This week I hit my first 1.000 subscribers on my YouTube channel where I talk about Open Source!

Feels so great to see that someone is appreciating my content, such a huge motivational boost to keep pushing!

This week I managed to knock a few things off of my list.

  • I started studying my web development stuff again and started on a few projects in the lessons.

  • I finished setting up my coding environment on Windows and my laptop.

  • Not really a win but, I messed around with ChatGPT a bit

  • Got some work done on an upcoming GitHub repo

  • Started Tactics Ogre: Reborn on Switch

That's about it. It was a pretty productive week. I kind of had to stay busy to keep my mind from dwelling on my interview this week but, overall, the week was pretty good.

I reached and passed 300 followers. I know it is a far cry from the 5000 of Jatin Sharma, but I was happy. Small steps before giant ones.

I published a new article/video on ML.NET as part of C# Advent, an ad-hoc article/video on transformers and story generation, and a video on last week's article about training AI to play One Night Ultimate Werewolf.

I also got work to pay for a course I'm taking largely for fun and to expand my knowledge

I finally (hopefully) solved my trouble with choosing new laptop. I was long deciding, choosing between multiple models, even thinking about trying Macbook for the first time.

Then I was recommended Framework laptop and I love the idea - modular, amazingly repairable, open hardware. Hope it will work nice.

Managed to finish and submit on time homework at my deep learning class on medical images segmenation (train model to highlight area of birth mark/melanoma) with python, torch and conv neural networks. Colab took away GPU from my account, and there were several short power blackout during the day. That was hard. Definitely a win.
